Sonship - here's another hoop for you to jump though.
Sonship - let's look a little closer at what you said here.
Sonship - Hmmm, and what exactly was your motive in saying this ?
Oh sonship - here's another little hoop for you to jump through for me.
Sonship - You mean to say .... thus and such .. heh ??

That's your thing.

Stop with the routine " Oh you just don't want to be scrutinized."
Tell us about your 30 years as a former lover of Jesus.
Originally posted by sonshipListen to what i am saying. Read what i am saying. I am not interested in comparing what I don't believe to what you DO happen to believe. Only your vanity is telling you that this is a comparison that is of interest.

Originally posted by sonshipyes we are rather bereft of this former life of his as an alleged Christian. His knowledge of scripture is so devoid that I have trouble believing the testimony. I wonder how he was nourishing his faith? how he was exercising his faith. How he was walking with the Christ.

I suspect that the reason you are so suspicious of Christians, so desirous to get behind the scene to find out what their tricks are, and how they are attempting to take advantage of you is a huge projection of your own methods.
"As face answers to face in water, so the mind of a man reflects the man." (Prov. 27:19)
Like the pick pocket who cautiously guards his own pocket. He does so because he knows how easy it is to slip his hand in someone's pocket to steal. You're projecting out of your knowledge that you yourself have been a sensationalist fraudulent exaggerator.
Because you know how easy it is to cheat others you yourself are filled up with suspicion that it is being done to you.
You won't tell anything about your decades of being a Christian because your are fraudulently making sensational personal testimonial about something that probably never occurred. And I think you know it.
"As a man thinks so is he. " (Prov. 23:7)
You cheated us. Every last reader of this Forum. You have cheated with a sensational story of your life's experience as a believer in Christ. So now all that device has turned around in your head and you're filled with suspicion - people telling you about Jesus Christ has to be a cheating of you.
Why don't you stop projecting your suspicions? They are most likely the strivings of your own deceptive soul. And this is not some deep psychoanalysis here. Your suspicions tell more about your fraudulent and sensational attempt to cheat other people.

Originally posted by sonshipYes I agree it would be interesting to hear from him on these points; why not start a new thread about it. But the point here, now, is why you won't answer questions about you strange beliefs.
Let's just say that I am as bored with his questions to me as he is of my week in week out propagating.
A change of pace is welcome. FMF advertizes that he's a recovered evangelical. Let him tell us all about his process of personal recovery.
I've been plenty personal with threads on [b]Calling and Prayreading and other practical personal ...[text shortened]... all about what enriched his personal decision to shift to unbelief ?
He advertizes it enough.[/b]

T is again for the 12th time in case you have forgotten:
If a person outright rejects your version of the trinity doctrine, does this preclude them from being spirit filled and therefore (according to your definition) also from salvation?
This question requires is a simply yes or no answer - you can qualify your response of course. But you refuse to give an answer, and why is that...because the answer is "yes".
You asked me "what strange beliefs?". I'm just helping you to see them.
So we're on the matter of the Trinity - the three-one God (without distraction).
Anyone breaking their arm patting themselves on the back that they have asked and re-asked some supposed doosey of a hard question may continue to do so.
Salvation and its requirements is not the subject of debate in this thread. The three-one nature of God is the subject.
So if we apply a yes or no test to this matter, I would have to say YES to certain revelations in the Bible.
When God says in Genesis 1:26 - "Let Us make man in Our image ..." is He talking about the Trinity ?
Answer: I think I have to say YES. This is mysterious. Christ is said to be the image of the invisible God.
" [Christ] Who is the image of the invisible God, the Firstborn of all creation..." (Col. 1:15)
In the council of the Godhead the decision was made that man would be made according to Christ, as corresponding to what Christ is. Though God says "Let Us make man ..." in verse 26, it says God made man in "His own image" and not in "THEIR" own image.
And Psalm 86:10 says He is God "alone" -
"For You are great, and You do wondrous deeds; You alone are God."
Nehemiah 9:6 also says He is God "alone" -
"You are Jehovah, You alone; You have made heaven, the heaven of heavens with all its hosts ..."
God alone had a council and said "Let Us make man in Our image ..." . Then it says it says He created man in His own image ..."
" And God created man
in His own image; in the image of God He created him ..."
I do not say I understand everything about this. But it indicates to me that God is way, way, WAY ahead of us in terms of doing things for a PURPOSE. He is not a God of many miscellaneous disjoint curiosities. He created the universe and man with an eternal purpose in mind. And for that purpose He is three-one. He has been three-one for all eternity.
